Rant favoring illegal aliens

Let me get this straight: Phyllis Schlafly is testifying at the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security and Claims as an expert witness?

What the hell is going on?

If you don't already know Phyllis, let me give you a brief intro by highlighting some best-ofs:

"Sexual harassment on the job is not a problem for virtuous women."

"Sex education classes are like in-home sales parties for abortions."

"Men should stop treating feminists like ladies, and instead treat them like the men they say they want to be."

Ah, wisdom. Anyways, Phyllis was supposed to go to Washington to speak nicey about the House immigration bill, instead she spent her time, according to the New York Times, blasting the President for supporting the Senate bill because she wrongly believes it provides amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants currently in this country.

The Huff Post sometimes censors non-liberal comments, but it left in comments agreeing with the above quotes. Some feminists responded that they don't want chivalry but they don't want to be treated like men either.

The NY Times article was strange because it identifies Phyllis Schlafly's religion, even tho no one else's religion was identified, and the subject matter did not involve religion. Her testimony did not involve any religious arguments. Perhaps I'll start referring to the Jewish NY Times.
